I’ve got the know-how.” A century before any bionic man, a doctor in the Wyoming Territory attached steam powered legs and an arm to a man trampled in a stampede. Get ready, Pardner, for a rip-roarin’ steampunk adventure!

Journey to Absentia by Samuel R. George


Marvel to the flight of a glider piloted by a pick-pocketing, cigar-smoking chimpanzee. Meet a giant unknown variety of lizard that drinks absinthe. Find out How the Peyote Kid got his name. Follow Smith and Jones as they flee from killers, and then pursue them in an adventure about gold, ancient Sumerian cuneiform seals, and alien crystals. Witness the light-hearted adventure of Romulus; a pet vulture, Kanthaka; a spirited Shetland pony, and Doc’s often belligerent gelding, Herodotus.

You will become friends with a child who makes horses dance, witness loud smoky gunfights, meet the rich and mysterious Comte de Saint-Germaine; follow the adventures of Old Doc, his sidekick the Peyote Kid, and the woman Doc loves, Miss Charlotte.

Thrill to amazing escapes from dangerous situations and bad men, but beware; you will encounter hopeless calamities in which the outcome is not always favorable . . .

Book of the Day May 23

Dangerous Ground by Herb Marlow


From the fired town marshal who stays on to foil a holdup, to a trapper who rescues an orphan boy, this collection is filled with Western heroes of the old breed. The reader can smell the gun smoke, and chuckle at a man who uses an old corset to beat a bully to the draw. Dangerous Ground is not merely a collection of eleven Western short stories, it is historical fiction at its best. Author Herb Marlow will take you to the West and make you wish you’d lived there in the days of bad horses, worse men, and roaring trail towns.
